About this episode

Seahawks Lose Key Player: Kenneth Walker Joins Chiefs, Leaving Seattles Backfield Thin

The Seattle Seahawks are facing a significant loss as running back Kenneth Walker has agreed to join the Kansas City Chiefs, marking a major change for the team. Walkers departure leaves the Seahawks backfield looking thin, especially since Zach Charbonnet is expected to miss the start of next season due to an ACL injury. The team still has other top free agents like edge rusher Boye Mafe, cornerback Riq Woolen, and wide receiver Rashid Shaheed on the market, and re-signing at least a few would help hold onto their winning core. The Seahawks are in need of a Walker replacement to stay competitive, and the coming weeks will show how they rebuild around the pieces they keep.
